Celestial Seasoning

So Celestial Seasonings things everyone that drinks tea wants it blended and named a special name for a special need and has eliminated bigger boxes with more tea bags for ‘specialized’ teas, not caring for customers needs — forcing and joining mass advertising moves. I won’t buy any of their ‘specialized’ teas instead I’ll go to a Herb garden and blend my own. Thanks Celestial Seasonings.

This is my favorite coffee shop on campus. The two reasons I like it so much are a) the drinks are consistently great and b) the prices are very reasonable. I much prefer this place over Laughing Goat or Pekoe.

Lots of options, allegro organic coffee (the same as whole foods), an abundance of tea, friendly and personable service (be nice to them and you will be blown away), and extremely reasonable prices. The baristas are all students who are working there to pay off their rent or tuition, I have not met one who dislikes their job. Stop by if you need a drink, snack or just a smile!

I ordered a 16 ounce mocha with an extra shot and they only gave me half a cup. It has a lot of foam but very little liquid. This has happened two times already.

Now, why in the world would I write a review for a coffee shop/​booth that I really only go to out of necessity? Well, for the hundreds of engineering graduate students, undergrads, and even professors stuck in this huge concrete behemoth of a building, the lobby and this little booth provide a welcome change in scenery. The coffee isn’t the greatest but it’s relatively cheap ($ 1 refills if you bring your own mug). You’re not going to get hearts drawn in the foam of your cappuccino but the baristas are friendly and have good taste in music. Supposedly the pastries are pretty good, although I haven’t tried them. Open 7am — 6pm on weekdays, stop by here if you’re rolling around campus and need a quick caffeine fix, or a vitamin water and a breakfast burrito.
